Vitesse vs Ajax by Hovi

Ajax is under pressure to win this away game against Vitesse as PSV won last night with 2-1 at home over Willem II and are currently 9 points away at the top of the table, having 52 points, while Ajax is at 43 points but a game less played, this one.

Ajax has defeated Vitesse with 4-1 in the league earlier this season, and they had a slip-up recently against Feyenoord at home as they could only draw 0-0. Prior to that game, after the winter break they had defeated Groningen 2-0 at home, and I like these odds on them to win today very much as Ajax will be fully focussed on not allowing PSV get away with the title this season.

Ajax is in luck, as Vitesse is in very poor form at this moment, they have lost 0-4 in the cup at Groningen, also a 1-4 loss in the league at Heerenveen and 0-1 at home loss with PSV. So all 3 games after the winter break have ended with losses for them, and especially the last two where they conceded 8 goals total makes the Vitesse fans worry about how many goals they are going to concede against Ajax.

I see the odds on Ajax as a gift from bookies, given the poor form of Vitesse, and I am on Ajax to win this game here.
